Last year they coasted through Minnesota and the Islanders after both teams had been decimated by injuries. This year they hit Winnipeg with its Hawerchuk down. Why do the Islanders play better with their backs to the wall? Look for some house cleaning with Gillies traded to some schmuck team for a first round pick (Hartford?). Does anyone in the Norris division play defense? Will the Montreal-Quebec survivor have anything left for their next opponent? Will Philadelphia start believing the hype about the Islanders ability to come back? -- Rick Gillespie rick@ucla-cs ...!{cepu|ihnp4|sdcrdcf|ucbvax}!ucla-cs!rick "She turned me into a newt! . . .
